Don't forget those games were developed in the USA. When the last Indiana Jones movie ran in the theaters the russian government was displeased with the way russians were displayed in the movie. Imagine in an american movie someone blowing up the Kremlin. We've never seen important buildings blowing up by rivaling nations, only the suggestion of it as a result of an unfortunate "accident" sparking total war (like in Dr. Strangelove).
